Disclosures of Your Information

Your information may be used by FireLake Foods, which is a business enterprise of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, a federally recognized Native American Tribe. We will never pass your personal data to anyone else, except for any successors to our business and the organizations that process data on our behalf. We may also use and disclose information in the aggregate (so that no individual customers are identified) for marketing programs, advertisers, and partners.

FireLake Foods may display targeted advertisements based on personal information. FireLake Foods does not provide any individual personal information to the advertiser when you interact with or view a targeted ad. Advertisers (including ad serving companies) may, however, assume that people who interact with, view, or click targeted ads meet the targeting criteria—for example, women ages 18-24 from a particular geographic area.

We may transfer information about you if FireLake Foods is acquired by or merged with another entity. In this event, FireLake Foods will notify you before information about you is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy by updating this page.

Legal Disclaimer

We reserve the right to disclose your personally identifiable information when we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities or suspected fraud, potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of FireLake Foods terms of use, or as otherwise required by law.

If you access other sites using the links provided, the operators of these sites may collect information from you which will be used by them in accordance with their privacy policy, which may differ from ours.

Security

The security of your personal information is very important to us. When you enter sensitive information (such as a credit card number) on our order forms, we encrypt that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). Once we receive the data it is immediately re-encrypted prior to storage. By default, payment card data is permanently destroyed within 91 days of submission.

FireLake Foods follows generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted by you, both during transmission and upon FireLake Foods receipt. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while FireLake Foods strives to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
